Certainly is easier to buy a crust but certainly won’t taste the same as making this one. 🙂

Now I’m not gonna lie to you…..this recipe takes work and time especially making the homemade crust, but it is totally worth it. In fact because it takes alot of time, I make it ONLY once a year, when it’s apple picking season here in RI. My family looks forward to it so much since they rarely get apple pie.

Perfect pie for Thanksgiving. 😉

I can tell you this; if you make it to serve at your Thanksgiving table, the family will never notice it isn’t made with white flour or white sugar, NEVER. It .Is.that.good. They will want seconds!

Look at those layers!!!

Excuse me while I wipe the drool off my computer screen.

I ate every bite and ate it without guilt. Wait till you see the nutrition info!

According to LiveStrong.com, a typical slice of apple pie is around 400 calories with 58 carbs and 19 grams of fat! Mine is much much improved!

This is a two crust pie right? I read to add the apples and the top crust but no mention is made of a bottom crust. Are there some directions missing or am I not reading right? the question about baking the crust before filling it with apples is throwing me off. Looking forward to trying this out soon.

Hi Brenda! I just did the pie (first one for me ever) and it tastes amazing. I used almond milk instead of regular one and also used coconout oil for the crust. It is a really really good :)) Thank you for sharing it and greetings from Croatia!

Hello, I was looking for a healthy apple pie recipe (my girl just announced she wants and apple pie for Thanksgiving) and came over to your creation. It looks amazing! I’m going to give it a try but will use Agave as a sweetener instead of the stevia… hoping it would be a hit. Thanks!

This is an amazing pie. It is incredibly delicious and much healthier than a traditional apple pie. We used almond milk instead of milk in the pie crust. To make completely vegan, use soya milk as glaze instead of egg white.

Just a little warning; be careful about how much stevia you use. I use a powdered stevia by KAL and it’s incredibly potent. Knowing that, I only used a single Tablespoon (thinking to cut back and check it out first) and completely destroyed a potentially excellent apple pie. Stevia is something like 50 x’s or 100 x’s more sweeter. For example, it’s recommended on other sites (google: sugar to stevia conversion) that 1 teaspoon of stevia is equivalent to 1 cup of sugar. So, putting 1 and 1/2 Tablespoon of powdered stevia (pure stevia without any fillers) would equate to a pie with 4 1/2 cups of sugar.
My personal recommendation would be to start with a 1/2 teaspoon and mix it into the apples, then taste it and add more if necessary. I’ll be trying this again, but using my own recommendation of adding a little at a time until I find the right amount.
Thanks for the recipe.

Just made this pie (my first pie ever) – as some of my apples started rotting already I substituted half of them with 200g of canned peaches. Also added a bit of orange zest for that “X-mas”-y flavour – I have to say it turned out delicious. Ist definitely the beginning of a beautiful friendship with baking!

Made the pie last night and it was a BIG hit!! I was on the Daniel Fast and was googling was to use mealy apples WITHOUT sugar and you popped up! but since I couldn’t use sweeter of any kind I had to tweet just a little… I did;t use any sweetener. I used a mixture of Rose, Granny Smith, Golden Delicious & red Delicious apples( had a bunch on hand and was trying to make good use of them). I peeled and chunked them up them simmered in natural Apple juice ( just enough to cover), while simmering I added bout a teaspoon of lemon juice and a pinch of salt then brought to a boil then reduced heat and simmered for about 20 minutes then added couple tablespoons rice flour to thicken juice. cooled for 30 min then poured in to crust ( I put a few pats of Earth blend throughout the bottom crust before pouring in filling sprinkled cinnamon . I latticed the top crust and added a few more pats of Earth Blend here and there on the top crust sprinkled little more cinnamon. It really was just sweet enough and trust me I am a lover of sweets so I was pleasantly surprised! #dontneedallthatsugar
